----------------------------------------------------------------------

In r1451210, I committed a reworked version of the patch.

Changes:

 * added Apache license header
 * improved javadoc
 * changed nextIterator() to nextIterator(int) which now also gets a call count 
as parameter
 ** makes implementation of anonymous classes simpler
 * reworked the logic to retrieve a new iterator a bit to make it similar to 
the IteratorChain
 ** fixes a problem with remove as it has to work on the last used iterator
 ** behaves like an empty iterator when no iterator is returned by nextIterator
 * removed constructors as providing an Iterator in advance does not make sense 
for an *lazy* iterator chain

Please review.

>             Project: Commons Collections
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Iterator
>         Environment: Java 1.5 or greater
>            Reporter: Jeff Rodriguez
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: dynamic, iterator, new
>         Attachments: LazyIteratorChain.java, LazyIteratorChainTest.java
>
>   Original Estimate: 1h
>  Remaining Estimate: 1h
>
> I would like to submit my DynamicIterator class for inclusion in Commons 
> Collections.
> Description from JavaDoc:
> Iterates over the elements of an inner iterator provided by nextIterator() 
> Once the inner iterator's hasNext() method returns false, nextIterator() will 
> be called to obtain another iterator, and so on until nextIterator() returns 
> null.
> The use case I had in mind for this class was the paged web service. A web 
> service returns a list of results, which are paginated. Once a page's results 
> are exhausted, nextIterator() can go fetch the next page for iteration.
> This class, and accompanying test class are my original works. I have 
> released them into the public domain, feel free to use the appropriate ASF 
> license.
